'We know that during the summer it's really important for kids to read because they've gotten that reading proficiency during the school year and when they're home during the summer, we want to keep them reading. So this is a great way for them to come in, practice their reading and keep on reading and maybe a great way just to read out loud,' said Carol Harder, library assistant at Sioux City Public Library. The public library has been holding the 'Read-To-Me-Dogs' event for nearly 20 years. The event is being held every Tuesday from 2-3 p.m. until July 1. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc.
